March 20th: Three Gifts That Made You Laugh

Oh heavens, I chuckle on a daily
basis for lots of reasons.

First, my unique sense of humor
that only I seem to find funny! It’s a gift to laugh at yourself and boy o boy
do I have it! Thank God because if I couldn't laugh at all my craziness, I’d be one
miserable person.

Second, my orange rhythm
dress. Holy Cow that thing is
competition for a neon colored car wash.
It’s basically a bathing suit top with
orange fringe and some tacky beading. I
shudder and a laugh just thinking about it. This weekend when I dance in it, I will hold
my head proud and not bat an eye when I blind someone by the color or the fringe.
Haha!

Third, my Irish Catholic Granny. While she isn’t physically on
Earth anymore, my memories of her put a smile on my face and a laughter in my
heart. She had so many little tendencies
that made me roll my eyes, but now they are so endearing, slightly crazy, but
all in all hilariously adorable! Yes,
she pinched cheeks, worried about what everyone else thought about her, how she
would be perceived, what the neighbors were doing, and what her grandkids were
up to. She smacked her lips when she
ate, always used her fingers to pick at her food, could drink coffee anytime of
day (That’s my kind of gal) and always said “Oh Oh Oh” in a high pitched voice. One day, I hope my grandkids think about me
and laugh because they love my crazy side.

A lot has changed since I posted in January 2014...I quit my corporate job to pursue my passion as a photographer, we moved into a large house in Virginia Beach, Jared came back with us and is 13, and we are expecting baby boy #2 in January 2016!!
